The text analyses the modernization of the Japanese society regarding the swift acceptance of modern sports from Europe and North America. Focusing the practice of the Japanese archery (kyûjutsu) and identifying it as a non-European activity, the main argument is that the quick acceptance of modern sports by the Japanese society can be better understood when we verify that some of the main characteristics of this sport (rationalization, quantification and the quest for records), were already present in the Japanese society, before the period of reformation of the country. Seeking to show how the characteristics of modern sports are identifiable in the practice of Japanese archery, it’s concluded that, being the seeds of modernity present in Japan before the modernization process itself, it’s easier to understand this historical event.Downloads
